Chapter 631: Climbing Mount Ni Alone
Without the obstruction of the 14th Lang Tianfeng, everyone finally reached the top of Nishan Mountain.
There were only three or five huts here. Nangong Ling knocked on the door and led everyone in one after another.
Everyone finally saw Qiu Lingsu.
Her voice is gentle and elegant, and her figure is slim and graceful.
Although he was just kneeling quietly in front of the incense table with his back to everyone, he still made everyone feel a moving charm.
Chu Liuxiang seemed to be crazy.
Liao Gang and Ye Jin didn't even dare to enter the house. They stood outside with lowered eyebrows and lowered their heads, breathing cautiously, for fear that their heavy breathing would disturb the peace of the people in front of them.
Qiu Lingsu did not look back, but asked slowly, "Nangong Ling, who did you bring?"
Chu Liuxiang bowed and said, "My Excellency, Chu Liuxiang, came here to pay my respects to Madam."
Jin Banhua said, "Jin Banhua from the capital has met Madam."
Nangong Ling said that Chu Liuxiang came to Qiu Lingsu for something. Chu Liuxiang named Ximen Qian, Zuo Youzheng, Ling Jiuzi, and Jamuhe, and found that Qiu Lingsu's shoulders were shaking.
Qiu Lingsu suddenly turned around, and everyone found that her face was covered with a black gauze, and even her eyes were blindfolded.
Qiu Lingsu admitted that he knew these four people, but said that they had not seen each other for twenty years and refused to admit that he had written to them.
After saying a few words, Qiu Lingsu stopped talking to them and just said to Nangong Ling, "When you go out, close the door yourself and forgive me for not seeing him off."
Chu Liuxiang's eyes flickered, and she suddenly asked, "Could it be that the remains of old gang leader Ren were cremated?"
Nangong Ling rushed to say, "Most of the members of the Beggar Clan are cremated after death. This is the legacy of the Beggar Clan passed down from generation to generation."
Chu Liuxiang expressed regret for not seeing Ren Ci for the last time. Qiu Lingsu suddenly said, "You don't have to regret it. My late husband has been in bed for many years and died suddenly. Not many people can see him for the last time. You'd better leave quickly." !”
Then Chu Liuxiang's eyes lit up and she left the hut decisively.
What surprised Chu Liuxiang and Nangong Ling was that Jin Banhua, a rich kid, didn't make any fuss and clamored to see Qiu Lingsu's beauty.
To be honest, Chu Liuxiang still had a little regret. He originally wanted to take advantage of Jin Banhua's influence. If he could really get Qiu Lingsu to reveal his face, he might still be able to get some glory.
However, they only thought that it was Qiu Lingsu's elegance and grace that calmed the dandy, and they didn't suspect anything.
…
"What? Back to Jinan?"
Unexpectedly, Jin Banhua didn't cause any trouble on Nishan Mountain, but she stopped working after coming down the mountain.
"We just traveled all day and midnight, went up the mountain after sleeping for two hours, and just as we came down, we had to rush back to Jinan. Are you kidding me?"
Jin Banhua patted the breakfast table, "When did I ever suffer such a crime?"
Nangong Ling said calmly, "Xiang Shuai and I are going back to Jinan. It doesn't matter whether Young Master Jin comes back or not."
"Go back to Jinan! Of course we have to go back to Jinan!" Jin Banhua said, "Chu Liuxiang guessed wrong. Mrs. Qiu doesn't know anything. Of course we have to go back to Jinan to find clues, but..."
"Anyway, there are no urgent clues now. Why don't we rest here for a day before leaving?"
Jin Banhua asked, "This is the hometown of Saint Confucius and the holy land of Qufu. Shouldn't we spend a day here to experience the saint's teachings thousands of years ago?"
Nangong Ling smiled slightly and said, "Master Jin comes from a scholarly family, but I am just a Jianghu man. He is not in the same family as Confucius, so there is no need to listen to his teachings."
Chu Liuxiang was helpless. Although Mrs. Qiu gave him a hint, he still had some unresolved doubts in his heart. He was anxious to go back to Jinan to see Su Rongrong to ask about the news about Shenshui Palace, but he did not have time to accompany Jin Banhua to play in Qufu.
"Aren't you afraid that if I run away, you will never find your white jade beauty again?" Chu Liuxiang asked.
"A monk who can run away can't run away from the temple. If I can find you once, I can find you a second time." Jin Banhua said, "Money can make ghosts grind. I'm going to put a reward of one hundred thousand taels of silver on you. You Guess someone will take me to find you?"
Chu Liuxiang said helplessly, "If you don't want one hundred thousand taels, if you only need ten thousand taels, a lot of people will bring you to me."
"So I have to get back to you. I can't bear to travel like this. Let me have a day off and come back to Jinan to see you tomorrow." Jin Banhua seemed very tired.
…
So Chu Liuxiang and Nangong Ling left.
Jin Banhua ordered a bowl of mutton porridge and a plate of smoked tofu, and ate them with pancakes.
"Sir, where shall we go later?" Liao Gang asked.
Jin Banhua thought for a while, "Is it not possible to visit the Confucius Temple in the Confucius Mansion now?"
Ye Jin was startled, "Master! The Kong Mansion is the residence of Yan Shenggong. Not to mention you, even your grandfather has to send a greeting card before he can enter the gate!"
Jin Banhua curled her lips, let alone the Kong Mansion, it was not like he had never entered the palace.
However, it will indeed take hundreds of years to go in and walk around openly in broad daylight.
At this time, Qufu was not big, at least it was far worse than Jinan. If it were not for the Confucius Mansion, then this place would be an ordinary small town in Shandong.
Jin Banhua walked around this small town for a long time. She bought some things in a Chinese medicine shop, a butcher shop, a tailor shop and a grocery store, and then returned to the inn to tinker with things for a long time.
The sky has gradually darkened.
"Are everything ready?"
"It's ready." Liao Gang said, "Four cold dishes and four hot dishes, peach juice and yellow wine, rice and steamed buns, shall we have dinner at the inn?"
"Not at the inn."
"Then where shall we eat?"
"On Mount Ni."
"What?" Liao Gang and Ye Jin were both surprised, and then they saw Jin Banhua turn around and leave.
"Sir, you...you wouldn't...that's the wife of the former leader of the Beggars' Sect..." Ye Jin advised.
"Of course I know." Jin Banhua waved her hand and said, "I went to see Madam Qiu for serious business. Didn't you hear that Madam Qiu had something to say this morning?"
Liao Gang and Ye Jin looked confused, "Ah?"
"What? Just follow me."
Jin Banhua led the two to Mount Ni quickly, and then saw some Beggars' Sect disciples on the mountain road of Mount Ni.
Ye Jin asked curiously, "Are these the disciples of the Beggars' Sect protecting Madam Qiu? Why didn't we see them this morning?"
Jin Banhua smiled, "Maybe it's because they didn't need to be on guard this morning, but now they need to be."
Liao Gang asked, "Are they on guard against that Tianfeng Shishilang?"
Jin Banhua shook her head and smiled, "Won't we know if we go to see Madam Qiu?"
Ye Jin looked at the Beggars' Sect disciples on the mountain road in the distance, frowned and said, "Looking at Nangong Ling's attitude, they won't let us go up to disturb Madam Qiu's meditation, right?"
Jin Banhua said, "Of course we used Qinggong to go through the forest and take a detour to the mountain. This is the foundation of Qinggong taught by Master Qi. You won't be unable to get up, right?"
Liao Gang and Ye Jin, "..."
